America no longer white, united, English-speaking
The Miami Herald ^ | 02 April 2004 | Patrick J. Buchanan

Posted on 04/03/2004 11:22:26 AM PST by MegaSilver

In 1960, when JFK defeated Nixon, America was a nation of 160 million, 90 percent white and 10 percent black, with a few million Hispanics and Asians sprinkled among us.

We were one nation, one people. We worshipped the same God, spoke the same English language, studied American history and English literature, honored the same heroes, read the same books, watched the same TV shows, went to the same movies and saw ourselves as defenders of Western civilization against the godless communism of the Soviet Empire.

We were confident and proud of who we were. That was yesterday. But due to the Immigration Act of 1965 and the cultural revolution of the '60s, that America is now gone forever. And as one studies the latest projections of the Census Bureau, the America of our grandchildren will be another country altogether, a nation unrecognizable to our parents, a giant Brazil of the North.

In 2050, there will be three times as many people living here as in 1960 -- 420 million. White Americans will be a minority, 49 percent, and falling. Hispanics in the United States, more than 100 million, will be equal to the population of today's Mexico. Our Asian population will be almost as large as our African-American population today.

By countries of origin, America will be a Third World nation. Our cities will look like Los Angeles today. Los Angeles and the cities of Texas, Arizona and California will look like Mexico City.

Writing in Foreign Policy, Harvard Professor Samuel Huntington, author of Who We Are, raises an alarm about the huge infusion of Hispanics into the Southwest, and for many reasons.

Much of this mass immigration is illegal. Vast numbers are coming here only to work. They are not assimilating. They do not want to become Americans. They are concentrating in states bordering Mexico, which is their country and a nation with a historic grievance against us. They are holding on to their language and culture, creating a Hispanic nation within our nation. By 2050, there will be scores of millions of people living here whose loyalty is to a foreign country.

Moreover, as multiculturalism has captured our schools and colleges, immigrant children will have prejudices and grievances against America and the West reinforced as they learn. The academic elite that controls these schools already paints America as a nation with a rancid history of genocide, slavery, racism, oppression and imperialism.

Is the Census Bureau future the future that Americans wish? No. Are they willing to risk it for their grandchildren? No.

Why, then, does that future appear inevitable?

Answer: Though a majority of Americans wish to preserve the land they grew up in for their children, our elites -- political, academic, cultural and corporate -- are either unwilling to conserve that America or indifferent to its disappearance.

Most Americans want immigration cut back and all illegal aliens sent back. Why is the will of the majority, expressed in polls and referenda, not reflected in law or policy? Because we no longer live in a democratic republic; we are ruled by a managerial elite.

America's corporate elites want an endless supply of cheap labor. Our judges throw out popularly enacted laws to which they object. Our academic elites work to see ''white, racist America'' disappear. Our neo-Marxist cultural elites wish to be the gravediggers of the West and of Christian culture. And America's conservative party, the Republican Party, believes that Hispanics hold the key to retention of presidential power and is anxious not to offend Mexican President Vicente Fox.

If, by 2050, the America we grew up in has become a Tower of Babel of squabbling minorities that is falling apart, it will be because of the treason of the elites, and our lack of will to overthrow them.

You know some illegals and the intimate details of their bill paying?

Who mistakes a typical Brazilian (with black, white, and some Indian) with a typical Mexican (Indian and white)?

Tell me, where do you suppose the present inhabitants of Mexico came from originally, that is, to settle the heretofore empty land call Mexico?

Well, I guess most of them are paying their bills in full, and in cash. Man, what a relief.

Not all, just the ones I know which does not mean I think all illegals should stay either.

The USA will crumble from within in another hundred years.

You mean like what happened to the Roman Empire?

[i]I see in the above you used the past tense of the word has.

LePen "has" one interest and one interest only, himself.

But thank you for bringing him up, he is another person that I would add to as a member to the neo-Peronist club.
[/i]

The past tense was a reference to the last presidential election where Lepen defeated the Socialist Lionel Jospin.

I don't see the point of your second remark.

I don't know what a neo-Peronist is, nor do I know enough about Juan Peron to make an assumption.

Well, they did not come from Africa, where much of Brazil's population's descendants came from. Indians came from Asia to the Americas. At the time Mexico was discovered by the Spanish, one-third of Indians supposedly lived in present day Mexico.

[i]I've never met an illegal alien who came here for the government welfare.[/i]

Really? Where do you live. Here in Miami I see this stuff every day. My nephew goes to a public high school here filled with kids who don't speak a word of English (they attend "English as second language" classes). Their parents seem to love Jackson Memorial Hospital and leech of government entitlements.

For the record, I have no problem with Cubans since they're generally fleeing communism.

I am speaking about people I meet. BTW, here in NY they're not all hispanic either. I know some who are not who are illegal anyway. BTW, just because I know them and talk to them doesn't mean I think they should be here. There are good law abiding people waiting in line for citizenships my best friend from Ghana in one.

We have many on what is arguably the largest conservative site in the USA cheering on the demise of our founding culture....that says plenty doesn't it?

They condemn Pat for his words, calling him "racist", but we are being invaded by Mexico. He is telling it the way it is. If you don't believe it, then you don't live in California.

Pat is seeing our culture, history, and our American way of life disappearing.

"Pat is seeing our culture, history, and our American way of life disappearing."

It's dangerous to assume because Buchanan has criticized Bush on foreign policy that everything Buchanan says is nonsense and not worth listening to. That's what we're seeing on this board.

Here's the reasoning:
Given: "I don't like Pat Buchanan's criticism of Bush's foreign policy."
Conclusion: "He's an idiot, so I'll just tune him out."

And to add my two cents on Pat Buchanan: He's been very civilized in his criticism of Bush. When he is on television his criticism is always very mild compared to his criticism of Democrats. I've seen some allegations of his being a hypocrite or someone who's abandoned his old ideals, but he's the same he's always been just without an R next to his name. He's always been a protectionist, and he even condemned the first Gulf War.

The ones I've seen in Texas came to work, and they do

They work in California too, by working for less money, taking jobs away from American workers in the roofing and construction industries, the gardeners, the truck drivers, nannies, the restaurant industry, the warehousers, the tile guys, the cement guys, the body shop businesses, etc., all the way down to fast food jobs.

They work much of the time for cash, pay few taxes, and their girlfriends and wives collect welfare and aid to dependent children while they're claiming to be single mothers. California taxpayers are being scammed to the max. They get free medical care, free schooling, assisted housing, food stamps, everything.

California is the king of welfare giveouts, and the false document business thrives, enabling the illegal aliens to get the whole enchilada for free, while young American couples struggle to pay their bills and their taxes, and their share of the billions of dollars illegal aliens cost California.

If anyone can explain to me how this is fair to America, that person gets a cigar (American made).

He's always been a protectionist

Nothing wrong with that - America needs a bit more protectionism, especially regarding American jobs, and less invasion. We can no longer be the world's wet nurse. I often wonder what happened to the concept of "America First".

It's not fair but the government allows it by not doing their job and letting political interests/special interests do the job for them.

South Americans are Indian, white, or black, and combinations thereof, depending on what country you are referring to.

Agreed. Republicans, Democrats, it doesn't make any difference anymore. Invasion and plunder without a shot fired. This is America? The Founders must be rolling in their graves.
